Mother knows best? Childrens physical activity levels and preferences.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background: Parents are the gate-keepers to young childrens physical activity (PA) and knowledge of their childrens PA levels and preferences may impact the PA opportunities they provide. Purpose: The current study examined childrens PA preferences (considering sex and grade variations) and the discrepancy between childrens preferences and parents perceptions. Method: Cross-sectional data were collected from 2,363 children (grades 1-4) and their parents. Children reported their PA preferences and PA levels relative to other students. Parents reported perceptions of their childrens PA preferences and levels. Results: Regardless of sex or age, the large majority of children like playing sports (95%), although less parents perceived that their children like playing sports (75%). Further, most children reported that they were less active than other children (69%), while the majority of parents perceived that their children were more active than other children (53%). Conclusion: Parents perceptions of childrens PA levels and preferences are often not aligned with the preferences of their children. Inaccurate parental perceptions have the potential to be detrimental with regard to the PA opportunities parents provide for their children.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
